RacePak GPS plus AEM Failsafe Wideband

Originally these were for another ECU and I was having trouble with that ECU. After talking with Elliot at Turblown I made a switch to Adaptronic (select plug and play S6). I know this stuff would work for my last ECU but now after reading the forum and trying to become more familiar with this ECU I am a bit confused on if I can get the Racepak GPS and Failsafe wideband to work.
I know I need the serial to Can convertor to run the Racepak IQ3 but I'm not sure if I can use my AEM Failsafe wideband or how to use it so I can integrate it with the ECU. What I would like to do is to be able to see the wideband, boost etc on my screen for when I do track days.

Any help or suggestions anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Note: I have tried to sign up on the Adaptronic forum but have not received my activation email yet after several days.

Just incase other are wondering/ interested here is the reply i received from adaptronic.


We haven't done this, but for the non-Haltech Racepak IQ3, you will need two things:
1. Our Serial-CAN Interface (SCAN) - the one in the video; and
2. a Racepak ECU CAN interface
But the thing is that we don't know where to get #2 from, we've been trying to chase up Racepak for that but we never got a response. You could try to source it from them though, you could tell them that you have a non-Haltech IQ3 and that you need it to connect to a Haltech Platinum Sport ECU to give the idea.

I've also checked the AEM Wideband failsafe gauge installation guide - http://www.aemelectronics.com/Images...%2030-4900.pdf - and the way I understand it on page 3 is that there's only an analog output for the AFR (no serial). We can use the analog output, however, we usually recommend people to connect lambda sensors through serial input to prevent situations where you see different readings between the ECU and the gauge. Another thing that we recommend is to use a wideband sensor with a serial protocol that tells the ECU whether the readings are valid or not which is important when using closed loop control. I'm not sure if you've seen this video where Andy explains more about lambda sensors -
Let me know if you have further questions.


So now I plan to switch to Mtx-l.

Hi Tony,

Sorry about the forums. We're having issues with it and looking into what can be done. I can't even log into the admin section.

If you have the Racepak IQ3 without the Haltech module built in you can add the Haltech VNET module:

Part number: 230-VM-EFIHAL
